Question

Different between Mesolithic and polymatich

Answer 1

Mesolithic:- It is the second period of stone age between Paleolithic and Neolithic. The start and end of the age vary by geographical region. It is a transition period from hunting and gathering as in Paleolithic to domestication as in Neolithic. The tools used were mode V chipped stone tools (microliths).



Paleolithic:- It is the earliest Stone age period dating 2.6 million years ago. The age is distinguished by most primitive stone tools. Humans during the era grouped together in small “bands” and were involved in gathering plants, fishing and hunting. The age can be divided into lower Paleolithic, middle Paleolithic and upper Paleolithic. During the end of the age, people developed spiritual and religious beliefs as depicted in some of the excavations.
